Things are coming together...
I prayed real hard last night and today I went and applied for food stamps so I’ll have money to feed myself as I get situated. I also made a trip up to Portland, OR for VooDoo Doughnuts! Amazingly yummy and cool to look at. I got a call and I start work tomorrow! Any day now I will hear back from apartments I applied to! So close to getting everything secure. Praise God!
Apartment Hunting!
Today I went apartment hunting in Salem and found many options, all very cheap. I found 3 I liked the most. 1 has the set up like New York, indoor hallways to your front door, small but cozy. The 2nd one had a decent size living space small like the first one with a different set up that felt more like a home, outside facing door though. The 3rd one had outside door and a patio, big living space...
Oregon Move Update
Okay, so I moved to Oregon and it has been almost two weeks now. First bit of it I was staying at a hotel just figuring things out and I got a bit nervous that I wouldn’t find a place I liked. Well this week my friend came and he has family here so I am staying with them, which is awesome!!!
His aunt took us on a tour and I realized this place is exactly what I am looking for. Also...

Prep work...
Okay so it is one week away that I will be moving my life to Oregon there is lot more to get done but here is a list since I love lists of things I have have been busy doing:
- Updated and mailed out resume packages.
- Had a few interviews via phone/skype.
- Went through my belongings and donated all things I didn’t need.
- Went shopping for things I did need.
- Rotated my tires, oil...
Still the hardest thing for me to grasp...
Budgeting!
Okay, so I’ve quit my job and now decide to move states with less than $3000. Am I insane? Most likely. Am I going to let that stop me? No. I just need to figure out what really needed to blow that money on and what is not. Then it will be a piece of cake. Even though I don’t like cake. Okay so it will be a tall cup of coffee…black. There thats more motivating!
First phone interview of my life...
Went well and seems very promising, just have to meet in person to seal the deal. :)

I did the unthinkable...
I quit my job that I have had for 7 years and 6 months. The management is unprofessional, I was over worked and under compensated. There was lack of appreciation for my loyalty.
This has opened so many doors for me I am so excited however there are a few details I have to work out, but I am sure once I do, I’ll be flying forward faster than I ever expected!
Caffine Overdose!!!!
Yesterday I went crazy and decided to get my friend and I each an Undertow from Starbucks and a venti carmel frapp. I got myself a 2nd to try a new flavor, that way if I didn’t like it I still have my original choice. Well by about 9:30pm I hit my crash hard, which I don’t do on a normal because I am an addict when it comes to coffee. So today I figured I would treat myself to one...

Breaking bondage...
One of the most difficult things I can’t seem to do. Quit smoking and daily Caffine intake. I’d like to request prayers from those who are willing. Im going to go for it, starting 3pm PST. God be with me and give me strength to push past this and break the grasp it has on me and my life. Amen!

First Goals
Okay so now that I know I am not going anywhere for a while unless God says so I figured it would be smart to start working towards something for my here and now. First few orders are: Gym Membership, Making my Room a Home! :)
I currently live with my dad, and I am never home, always doing around from place to place so eventually I will move out when I find a job that makes me enough and where I...

Revelation:
I’ve been putting on pause my present life in hope of preparing for my future. You can’t see the end of a movie if your stuck on pause right!? Wow…Things I thought I wanted I still want, but I just had what I’d call a realization and understanding that I never thought I’d be okay with. Why not actually enjoy and make what I got the way I want it while living with just having a future in mind. Why...
Recent development...
An actual goal!
Because of recent going ons in my life and gathering all advice given in the past to present, I’ve finally set a goal which includes the 3 things I am always addressing in my thoughts: health, travel, and learning a musical instrument!
1 year goal to work my ass off to get healthy and save money while researching and planning a 1 year trek across the USA. At the end if one...
Just had breakfast for dinner...
I don’t normally eat breakfast so I can’t call it 2nd breakfast, but it was sure yummy! Egg on toast with a side of grits. :)
I don't know how someone with my schedule could...
I worked 2:30-11pm yesterday, then had to be back at 6:30am til 8:30pm (no lunch break, or any break for that matter) and now have to shower sleep and be back at 7am.
Please tell me where anything else let alone a workout can fit in!?

A New Year...New Beginnings
This new year I was originally expecting it to blow seriously, however after the church service this weekend I realized there’s a lot more positive then I thought. Some key points that stuck out to me:
“If you don’t let your past die, it will never let you live.”
“Id rather be a wet water walker then a dry boat talker.”
“Obedience = Abundance.”

Bible in 90 Days
So I’ve decided to read the bible in 90 days. I have yet to complete it ever and after carefully thinking it through. Instead of going slow at first I wanted to just get through it. Like when I train a new hire, I show them everything at first and it’s overwhelming, but then in time they get to see how each thing is done fully. This way I get to know some sort of idea about every book...

Rituals in Religon
I’ve just come back from Pleasanton after attending a Catholic Mass for rememberance of those who’ve passed. The ways of the Catholic church reminded me of when Jesus worked on the Sabbath by healing. The Jewish leaders saw both the mighty miracle of healing and a broken rule. They threw the miracle aside as they focused their attention on the broken rule, because the rule was more...

Chicken vs. Egg = Darwin vs. God
Which came first, chicken or the egg? Some have been stumped by this; some say the egg came first laid by some preexisting bird in which the chicken evolved from. Others say the Chicken was first due to being one of the many species of animals on the planet. I think this is all relative to science and religion. Which came first, God or the Earth? I find it obvious as well. If scientist believe...
Voting Day...
Its hard to get motivated about voting when our country is so two sided that other canidates that are not either republican or democrat barely have a chance to take office. I think no matter who gets elected we always complain…maybe we should consider a diffrent choice then conservative or liberal…Just a thought. Either way Ive got to decide what I think will be good for everyone as a...

Dipping in Slowly
I am finding it very difficult to get started on my journey of faith because it seems like reading all that information in the Bible will just give me a headache and I feel I will give up. So to start off simple, I watched a few Christian movies instead. I learned how it is okay to be human and I don’t have to be perfect right away, I can come to Jesus the way I am. I also learned that it is...

Better keep that up, because the heavens have arranged an opportunity for you to take a risk — and to issue a challenge. For the next three weeks, a secret tryst will be possible. Think you’re...
DREADlocks!?...
Sooo…you may or may not know I’m a major hippie spirit and in past years I’ve thought of this but it’s back on my mind. Wanting dreadlocks! I know its a huge commitment. It takes forever to start and you keep them forever or many years and it’s twice as long to take them out but I still can’t help thinking I’d enjoy the unique hair style. Specially once...
Spring cleaning always happens in fall...

Ill post a memo tomorrow letting the staff know the first person to mess it up will be killed! For now…Im going to dive into “On The Road” by...

Less is more....
Some people go shoping to feel better, but in my case I get rid of things! The less I own the better I feel. I just finished going through my room and bath. Now for my car and to pick things up. Gonna start this next week on the best note I can!
